Food safety in Tamworth

Food safety in Tamworth comes under the NSW Food Authority alongside Tamworth Regional Council. The January festival aside, most food work here is year-round rather than seasonal — pubs, clubs, aged care and school canteens hire steadily — so a food handler certificate is a small, permanent addition to your resume rather than something you need for one summer.
